VERIFICATION METHOD FOR CALIBRATION OF CAMERA, CALIBRATION VERIFICATION PROGRAM AND CALIBRATION VERIFICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18323256 titled 'VERIFICATION METHOD FOR CALIBRATION OF CAMERA, CALIBRATION VERIFICATION PROGRAM AND CALIBRATION VERIFICATION APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
- This patent application describes a method for verifying the calibration result of a camera mounted on a vehicle. - The method involves acquiring an image captured by the camera and calculating the display position of a required accuracy range based on positional information of a verification target and the required accuracy of the camera. - An overlay image is generated to indicate the display position of the required accuracy range and is overlaid on the captured image. - A determination step is then performed to determine if the calibration result of the camera meets the required accuracy. - The method aims to ensure that the camera is accurately calibrated for its intended use in the vehicle. - The verification process involves displaying a verification image with an overlay indicating the required accuracy range. - This method can be used to verify the calibration of cameras used in various applications such as autonomous vehicles or surveillance systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
A calibration verification method for verifying a calibration result of a camera mounted to a vehicle includes: an image acquiring step for acquiring an image captured by a camera; an overlay position calculation step for calculating a display position of a required accuracy range based on positional information of a verification target and a required accuracy of the camera; an overlay image generation step for generating an overlay image indicating a display position of the required accuracy range, and causing a display device to display a verification image where the overlay image is overlaid on the image captured by the camera; and a determination step for determining that the calibration result of the camera satisfies the required accuracy of the camera.
